Summary |
Reports on research being conducted by the National Research Council in Halifax on developing a renewable energy resource from algae. Vegetable oil is currently being used in a very limited way to fuel vehicles, but vegetable oil extracted from the abundant supply of algae growing in streams and bodies of water worldwide could become a viable alternative to petroleum for fueling diesel and jet engines |
